Hey guys. Decided to finally start to post my journey. Im 21 years old, 5'10" tall, and I weighed in this morning at 206 pounds. Dont know what my bf, but I am pretty lean at the moment. I have been bulking for a few months now and I will continue to do so until I get up to about 240-250 lbs. I have been lifting hard since i was 16, so I am still fresh and new to the iron. I have always eaten clean and I have continued to do so with my bulk. I know this will take ALOT of time to put on the kind of quality size that I want to and I am prepared to bulk for a minimum of a year, but most likely more. I have always loved to bang weights and its pretty much all i know. Just thought I would get started by posting my journey and getting feedback and encouragement from my fellow bros.
My current diet:
Meal 1- 3 scoops Real Gains, 1 scoop whey, 2 tbsp natty pb, skim milk
Meal 2- (post w/o) 2 scoops whey, 80 g waxy maize
Meal 3- 6 whole eggs, 1 cup oats
Meal 4- 6-8 oz ground round/chicken breast, 1 cup brown rice/1 medium yam
Meal 5- same as meal 1
Meal 6- same as meal 4
Meal 7- 6 egg whites, 3-4 whole eggs, 1 slice fat free cheese OR 1 can tuna, 2 tbsp natty pb
*all food measurements are cooked except for oats

Current Training Split:
Legs
Shoulders
Arms
Rest
Back
Chest
Rest

I will post my training that I did this morning later on this evening. Thanks guys

That looks very close to how my bulking diet was. The only thing you need to remember is when you level off on the scale, up your cals and you will continue to grow brother. Good luck.

Also threw in some cable crunches, crunches, and hanging leg raises.
Finished up with 30 minutes on the elliptical. I like to do cardio because it keeps the heart healthy, increases my appetite, and keeps bf down.
I am a big believer in reps between 6-12 but throwing in drop sets and supersets to shock the muscles and get a huge pump. Downed my shake and got out of the gym to cook my next meal and hour later.

Do you guys think i should stick with the real gains shake or should i just go with a shake with three scoops whey, 1 cup oats, and 2 tbsp pb??? i feel like the more whole food thrown in the better
